i used an astra mk 3 in mine i think needed trimming off th eends as it is too wide but the hight should be fine. prob need to remove the standard grill slats tho.

mk2 grill on a mk1 bumper? Does that fit properly (except the gap in the middle)

V wise - steer clear - the ends are too short (if using a corsa one).

Just use the slats and get a GSi/GTE badge for the middle...

Then again i also had a rabbits water bottle into the mesh on the bottom as it looked like a rabbits hutch.

Two crimes on that car, crayon. On is the v grill and the other is the mk1 front bumper, on a mk2??!!

Dont do it, IMO of course.

However...if you blended the mk2 grill into the mk1 bumper so there wasnt a gap in the middle it might look okay.

V wise, you could try removing the tail parts of the chrome and just have the V but fatten it up a bit - might look okay.

Or make the whole corsa one fatter.

Mk1 bumper is too square for a mk2 IMO.
